Nick Potter
Master of Vibrant Landscapes and Seascapes
Nick Potter, an artist deeply inspired by his surroundings, moved to the picturesque village of Great Bowden in the 1980s. This transition sparked a lifelong passion for landscape painting, and it wasn’t long before Nick’s experimentation with various media led him to discover the vibrant potential of acrylic inks. His unique application of these inks, akin to watercolours, soon became a defining element of his work.
Artistic Evolution and Milestones
Nick’s work quickly gained attention across the UK, allowing him to fulfil his dream of opening his own gallery. This venture not only showcased his art but also provided a platform for other talented craftspeople from around the country. The gallery experience gave Nick the confidence and freedom to further explore and develop his distinctive style, solidifying his reputation in the art world.
Mediums and Techniques
Primarily working with acrylics and acrylic inks, Nick is known for his versatility and quick-drying techniques, as well as his use of mixed media and textured approaches. His paintings often focus on wild landscapes and seascapes, drawing attention to environmental concerns through his art.
Current Inspirations
Now living on the stunning Northumberland coast, just steps away from the sea, Nick is inspired to paint every day. His garden studio is his sanctuary, where he works while listening to long unabridged audiobooks, which have become an integral part of his creative process.
